Hi Gordon!

I’m not sure if you remember this, but in Criminal Destiny of Masterminds it says there was a smudge on the paper listing all of the DNA donors names on it which is how they figured out who they were cloned from. You probably don’t remember, but if you do, was the smudge for Eli supposed to be Tamara so Felix could make sure her or Eli didn’t find out or was it Bartholomew Glen and Felix and Tamara crossed it off after he wasn’t able to do the experiment? Again, you probably don’t remember, being it was so long ago when it was written, but I was just wondering incase!

Thank you!

You're right, Ellie. I don't recall. But sometimes a smudge is just a smudge, right? I think I wanted Eli's identity to be a mystery a little bit longer. Sorry. Not sure. --GK--
